Reproduction Armour Installed
Hello,
Last weekend, our crew installed 3 pieces of MkII frontal armour on the Huntsville Legion Bren Carrier. Instead of rivets, we used 1" long Spaenaur carriage bolts and corresponding 3/8" acorn nuts. The installation was fairly straightforward once we completed "fit" grinding. It was nice to work in a well equipped, warm garage after making the 6km transit from the Huntsville Legion where the carrier is stored in it's enclosure. After letting the paint dry, we were able to scoot it back to the Legion on Sunday in time for Monday's Remembrance Day parade. Thanks Rick for getting our order finished and mailed (via Canada Post) such that we had time to install. A couple of more pieces to go and we will have the frontal armour complete.
Cheers!
